Danh ngôn của Amy Purdy (Sứ mệnh: 6)

I feel that losing both my legs was a blessing. It was meant to happen to me: I wouldn't have had the opportunity to touch so many lives in such a positive way.
I've learned that borders are where the actual ends, but also where the imagination and the story begins.
I've never wanted sympathy votes in anything I do in my life.
I was in kidney failure. I ended up having a kidney transplant on my 21st birthday.
I love the smell of rain, and I love the sound of the ocean waves.
I don't want to see myself as this sad, disabled girl. I know that. I don't want other people to see me as that, either.
That's really what the Paralympics is about: these amazing athletes and this technology that's allowing them to reach their full potential.
I made a choice before I lost my legs that I was going to live the best life possible and that I wasn't going to let this slow me down - and that choice has kept me moving forward.
I got this second chance at life, and I live it.
You don't always have to have the most amazing story. It's learning to share the story you have that counts.
